Romelu Lukaku’s father has told his son to join either Manchester United or Bayern Munich this summer in order to further his career.

The Everton forward joined the Toffees in 2013 and made his move to Goodison Park permanent the following summer in a £28.5million move from Chelsea.

The 22-year-old has scored 25 goals in 39 appearances for a struggling Everton side this season and he would command a transfer fee in excess of £45m if he was to leave Merseyside this summer.

Lukaku has made no secret of his desire to play in the Champions League and his father says he must leave Everton in the summer to accelerate his progress – with a move to Old Trafford or the Allianz Arena on the cards.

‘He’s ready. I see that there is interest from Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Chelsea and Manchester United,’ said Roger Lukaku.

‘I think he must choose Manchester United or Bayern Munich. Manchester United is a team under construction with no real focus.

‘Bayern Munich is a machine where he can rotate well. The only condition is if Robert Lewandowski leaves.’
